Little Romeo

On Tuesday, Park, Spencer and I went to Taco Bell for lunch, sans Merritt. Spencer was in "a mood" which is rare for my cutie--screaming, fussing, wouldn't eat, wouldn't nurse, just MAD. So anyway, I'm trying to keep him quiet and order and there's Parker, finding a cute girl and becoming fast friends. Can't this boy be restrained? Can't the charm be turned off?

At our table, he's all "Mom, can we sit by them? Huh? I wanna sit by them. Where are they going to sit?" Spencer's screaming, bugging everyone during their refried beans and stuffed burritos and Parker's eyeing the cute brunette with big dimples. So she and her Grandma sit at a tall table by us, Parker scarfs down 1/2 a taco and then begs to sit near them. He sits at a tall table by theirs and she gets her Grandma to switch seats so she's right by Park with her back to his. CUTE! Grandma: "So that's why you wanted to switch, so you could flirt." Giggles, hair pulling and chatter about age (she's almost 6 too--3 weeks older!) ensue.

Unfortunately, their little romance ended quick with Spencer's continued tantrum. Plus, she was done with her taco. Sorry, Bud. I'm sure it's not the last flirtation ruined by a family member. Too bad you didn't get a phone number.

This has got to be a Manire trait! We didn't do this until we were...never! Lucky you!
